71 Children currently on Death Row in Iran

Do you like this story?

In a troubling report on the execution of minors in Iran, Amnesty International said yesterday that at least 71 child offenders are on death row and more than 24 have been executed since 1990, more than in any other country.

Defendants younger than 18 are being hanged after swift decisions and hurried procedures, said the report, “Iran: The Last Executioner of Children.” Of the 24 child offenders reported executed, 11 were still younger than 18 at the time of their deaths.

Oh and guess what their horrible crimes were that they deserve execution…

Under Iranian law, capital offenses include adultery by married people, incest, rape, four convictions of an unmarried person for fornication, three convictions for drinking alcohol, or four convictions for homosexual acts among men.

And to think, the left is parading around defending these sick people.
